Whiteside (ankle) has been cleared to play in Sunday's matchup with the Celtics, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Whiteside suffered a minor left ankle sprain during Thursday's game against the Raptors, but it was never expected to be serious enough to keep him on the sidelines. Look for Whiteside to remain in the starting lineup at center and see his full complement of minutes on Sunday, so fantasy owners can keep the big man activated in all leagues.
